So You Think You Can Dance: He's Still Just a Hack To Me

What the hell is going on with Cat tonight? Not only does she look like she's wearing her underwear, but her hair's a mess and her makeup's not looking much better. Was she screwing someone in her dressing room again?

Please get laid on your own time. 

Welcome! To So You Think You Can Dance (dance............dance)!

The opening number this week is danced to Billy Joel's "It's Still Rock And Roll To Me". Great song, terrible dance.

What the hell was that?  I think it's sort of trying to be like Class of 1984 with even worse hair and makeup. I keep waiting for the teacher to show up and blow them all away. And by "waiting", I mean praying. 

Of course Sir BitchyPants choreographed it. Seriously dude, you suck at anything but contemporary and jazz. Please stop trying to be edgy. Christ! Half of this dance seemed like a solo for Jakob with the other dancers serving as backup. Maybe SBP has a thing for him or something.

And why on earth would he have Ryan and Asseleigh making out in the middle of the dance?!?!? What the fuck? 

SYTYCD20091202e

Get a fucking room!!! 

Cat wants us to put our hands together for Sir BitchyPants, but the only way I'm doing that is if they're together around his throat. We get a shot of him in the audience and AHHHHHHH!!!!! No! Lauren is right there with him!!

Save Yourselves!  

Cat says that as of tonight we are only two weeks away from crowning America's favorite dancer. Wait. What? That means we're going to have a top six this season instead of a top four. I HATE that. How's that going to work? We won't have time for the everyone dances with everyone scenario that we usually have. What are they doing to my show?!?!?!?

Cat asks the judges how happy they are that they don't have to cut anyone this week. Nigel says it takes the pressure off, but they're still sad to see two people go.

SYTYCD20091202f

Funny how his sad face and arrogant jackass face look exactly the same. 

As always, we get a montage of what happened last night because Nigel thinks we are all idiots who can't remember what happened just last night

After a commercial break we're treated to yet another commercial. This time it's Dominic doing yet another one of those clips where he tests people's dance knowledge. It is even worse this time than it was the last time.

SYTYCD20091202g

Please just stick to dancing.  

SYTYCD20091202h

Her children are so proud. 

Time to get to some results. The ladies are up first.

SYTYCD20091202i

Okay, so based on the order they're standing in, I would say Ellenore will be safe, Mowee should be in the bottom two, Asseleigh will be safe (BLEH), and the final one in the bottom will be between Kathryn and Noelle, with Noelle winding up in the bottom.

Let's see if I'm right. Cat starts with Ellenore. She is safe, of course. No shocker there. Moving on to Mowee. She is safe. That surprises me, and Mowee looks to be pretty surprised herself.

SYTYCD20091202j

But Ellenore's reaction is priceless. And hilarious.

SYTYCD20091202GIF2.gif

Okay, that's a little disappointing, but surely now that means that Asseleigh has hit the bottom, and I'm betting that Noelle will be joining her. Hopefully Asseleigh will be the one going home. 

Cat skips over to Noelle. Oh Cat, trying to confuse us, are you? Of course Noelle is in the bottom. She doesn't seem too shocked to hear that. And now we're down to Asseleigh and Kathryn. The second girl in the bottom two is Asseleigh Kathryn. WHAT?!?!? I don't get that AT ALL. I don't understand how both Mowee and Asseleigh could have gotten more votes than Kathryn. Are blind people voting?

SYTYCD20091202k

What happened? You guys told me we were voting for Kathryn! 

Time for the guys. 

SYTYCD20091202l

I don't know if I can predict the bottom based on their order here if Cat is going to fuck with us again. So I'll just say that it should be Ryan and Legacy based on last night's performances.

Cat's starting with Ryan. He IS in the bottom two. And then they cut to Asseleigh making ugly sad faces and I'll just spare you that sight because I am sure it was scary enough the first time around.

cansnuts:

The League of Extraordinary Dancers blew me away. The musicality and timing of that piece was amaaazzzing.

Sad to see Noelle leave (would have much prefered Mollee or Ashleigh as well) but I am so proud of her for making it to the top 10. Never thought she would have won, but she has certainly made her hometown proud. Nathan really screwed himself over by how he acted earlier in the season. Wish it would hav e been Ryan instead. Here's to hoping he and his wife get kicked off next week. I would hate for just one of them to and have to listen to the other whine ab out how hard it is without their spouse.

hearshys:

The Legion of Extraordinary dancers was exactly that, EXTRAORDINARY!!! I can't wait for the start of the year just to see them and their brilliant synchronization and musicality...also that it was choreographed by the "other Asian" from Glee just makes it a whole lot better!! Asian Pride!!

cattyfan:

Ellinore ensured her favorite status with me, just on the basis of her expression when Mowee was announced as safe.

But the bottom four was BULL. What are people thinking??? Assleigh and Ryan should have been sent packing. Nathan may be immature, but the boy has incredible talent. All Ryan has is a poorly concealed receding hairline.

As for the opening number...I think we should call for a ban on SBP. And then soundly thrash whomever is giving Cat "fashion advice." (Kelly Monaco wore that same dress on General Hospital the week before. It was ugly then already.)

Rosie:

Ryan and Ashleigh make me want to barf. I too can do without the whole make out on stage bit. Ashleigh and Mollie should have been in the bottom and I wouldn't have cared who went home. Noelle got cheated.

zerocool:

Come on guys, Ryan's not that bad. He seems to have a good attitude and he's pretty talented. I just don't see him beating out the other three guys, Jakob, Russell and Legacy. He should go before they do.

The guest dancers were amazing and I have to agree with PM that - holy cow - did the Billy Joel routine suck. I couldn't bear to watch the whole thing, it was too painful. That kiss was just not necessary!

Something to ponder: Ryan & Assleigh have a one in four chance of winning $250K, presuming they share their money like every other married couple.

cansnuts:

There's no way in hell either of them will win.

keenai:

I think it was Nathan's time to go. Ryan will/should be gone next week.

I was so upset when Kathryn was announced in the bottom. I feel I'll have to vote for her this week.

Did NOT notice the Molly blow off from Nathan. Thanks for the .gif. He totally could not stand her. Too bad. A better partner (say, Noelle) could've helped him a lot. Poor thing.

Tadow:

I also missed the Mollee blow off. In the clip you provided though you can see a hand on Nathans shoulder which just may have been pulling him in the opposite direction. Thanks for the recap(s). It seems like these season has flown past with very few phenomenal routines.

blazergirl:

I didn't notice this until watching the second time, but Lil C was in the performace with the Legion of Extraordinary Dancers. I thought it was him and then looked it up to confirm. I wonder if he is a permanent part of it.

keenai:

Definitely Lil C, and he's in the promo clip, too.

My friend said she spotted Jemile from S1 during the performance as well.

PottyMouth:

cansnuts: I hadn’t even thought about that one of them might whine with the other gone. Ideally they’ll both be booted off next. I can’t stand looking at either one of them anymore!

hearshys: I can’t wait either! I ended up subscribing to John Chu’s You Tube channel to make sure I don’t miss them when they start!

cattyfan: That face was so priceless, wasn’t it? I laughed SO hard. I will gladly join in on requesting a ban on SBP. I think we should start a petition.

Rosie: I completely agree that Asseleigh and Mowee should have been the bottom two girls. Either one of them getting the boot would make me very happy.

zerocool: Sorry, zc, he grosses me out. He reminds me of a skuzzy male stripper. Put him together with his pukey wife and that REALLY pushes me over the edge.

cansnuts: Let it be so.

keenai: Yeah, I was actually contemplating voting because of the whole Kathryn being in the bottom thing. I couldn’t believe it.

Tadow: It was Legacy’s hand. Nathan goes to hug him while blowing Mowee off. I think in most cases he would have stopped, hugged who was in front of him, and then hugged Legacy. Then again, I could be seeing what I want to, right? ;)

blazergirl: I also didn’t notice the first time, but yes, Lil C is part of the Legion. I cannot wait to see this series!

keenai: I didn’t notice Jamile – I’ll have to go back and look again. I did think I saw JD from Massive Monkeys in one of the promos (for all you crossover ABDC fans!)

I can’t wait to see who is the next to go! And for a season that seemed like it took forever to start, I now can’t believe it’s almost over! {{sniffle}}. Thanks again for reading and all your comments!

SWAK, PottyMouth

fire@will:

I'm absolutely, 13 percent sure I saw Elvis in the Extraordinary routine...

cattyfan:

Jimmy Hoffa was in there, too...

PottyMouth:

fire@will & cattyfan: LMFAO!!!!!

brat:

WTF with that kiss - my god enough with the "we are married and love each other soooo much that public displayes of affection are neccessary" blech. The worst thing about it was that it looked akward and uncomfortable. Like they were going to swallow each other (mouths wide open and slobbery). I am staqrting to think that this over display PDA is because they may be trying to hide their real sexual orientation.
I could not believe that Katherine was in the bottom and neither assley or mowee were. I didn;t lvoe nicole but did not mind her either. I do have to say - what was Nicole thinking wearing what she was wearing. I am sure she is a tiny girl but that outfit just did all the wrong things for her. She had love andles hanging over the edge and her legs looked huge. Believe me as someone who is slightly horizontally challenged, I am not critisising her body, just her clothes selection. Pick something that flatters you not accentuated the parts that aren't the best

fire@will:

ref the (ewwww) kiss, brat has a pretty good point. Even if it wasn't forced, (and it was), it just seemed creepy (like most PDA's).

Reminded me of a presidential candidate who was criticized for acting too stiff. He kissed his wife much like that and it was awkward and creepy in more ways than one.

jewel54:

Yes, that kiss was yeecchhh. They are overdoing it with this married couple thing to the point of total nausea. While Ryan & Assleigh have ability, they are nowhere near the level of Latin dancers that have been on previous seasons.
The kiss did look forced, like they were trying too hard to convince everybody how much they love it other. Phony, just like their audition. Hmm. It's tough living a lie.
